The Pradhan Mantri National Apprenticeship Mela (PMNAM) will be held on December 12 in 197 locations across 25 states and Union Territories as part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision to increase career opportunities for India’s youth under the Skill India Mission. Several businesses from diverse industries will participate in the event.
“Individuals can register for the mela by visiting https://www.apprenticeshipindia.gov.in/ and to find the mela’s nearest location. Candidates who have passed Class 5 to Class 12 and have skill training certificates, or ITI Diploma holders or graduates can apply during this apprenticeship mela. The candidates must carry three copies of their resume, three copies of all the mark sheets and certificates, photo ID (Aadhaar card/driving license, etc), and three passport-size photographs to the respective venues,” the ministry said.
Candidates will increase employability rate after training session
The candidates will increase their employability rate after the training session by participating in this fair and obtaining certifications recognized by the National Council for Vocational Education and Training (NCVET).
The Secretary of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Atul Kumar Tiwari, expressed his viewpoints on the Pradhan Mantri National Apprenticeship Mela “In terms of the availability of apprenticeship opportunities for today’s youth, India has frequently been contrasted with other developed economies. We are doing everything we can to make apprenticeship opportunities available to trainees and students to close this gap.”
According to him, the primary objective of this campaign is to persuade businesses to hire more apprentices. In addition to creating reliable pathways from an apprenticeship to higher education, Tiwari also stressed the importance of integrating apprenticeship into the educational environment.
